Mattias Boström

Author of FROM HOLMES TO SHERLOCK

“The canon of critical and biographical material on Holmes and Doyle is massive, of course, but even so, this latest entry makes a significant contribution to our understanding of how a bloodhound called Sherlock took over the world.”—Booklist (starred review)
“For fans of literature, film history, and Conan Doyle alike, a fine complement to the best works of Sherlock-iana.”—Kirkus Reviews“When next asked why you so love Sherlock Holmes, hand your interrogator a copy of this work.”—Steven Rothman, Baker Street Journal

The same book is also available in a UK edition, where it has been retitled The Life and Death of Sherlock Holmes. The book has previously been published in Swedish, Danish, Norwegian and German editions – the US/UK edition is however revised and approximately 20 chapters longer.
